INTERLUDE:
GIRLS’ MEETING

 

WE’D GATHERED to evaluate our recent reconnaissance mission. We’d called this meeting to develop a plan to keep Haruka-kun with us.

“He was, like, totally staring at us,” Shimazaki-san said. “No doubt that he’s interested in girls. He doesn’t seem like the kind of guy who’d be into BL.”

“Well, he’s constantly ogling our chests and legs, that much is obvious.”

“Ugh, I hate it when he stares. Don’t you?”

Seeing a smile was rare since we came to this world. For so many days, there was nothing to smile about.

Arriving here, we finally felt like smiling again. Today was wild, but in the end, everyone was full of laughter. Haruka-kun made us feel at ease, even if he wasn’t strong.

I didn’t care that he was weak, I just wanted him to stay with us. His presence made it easy for us to smile. That’s why we were working on a plan to persuade him to stick around.

“So he’s not gay, but he barely reacts to us!” Fukunuki interjected.

“He’s just worried about how we feel after we were attacked by the other guys,” Chika said. “He’s a little odd, but…”

“Is he a boobs guy or a legs guy? I couldn’t tell, he just ogled everything equally. Hold on, is he into both?!”

“He doesn’t get involved with anyone, not just girls. He probably wouldn’t care if we left him behind.”

Everyone sighed.

We continued our meeting late into the night. Other than confirming that he probably liked girls, we didn’t make any progress.
